Sir Walter Apartments

Sir Walter Apartments provides affordable housing for seniors ages 62 and older and is located in downtown Raleigh, NC. This historic building was once called the “Sir Walter Raleigh Hotel” and is downtown Raleigh’s oldest surviving hotel building; constructed between 1923 and 1924. Since then the building has been renovated into apartments for seniors. We offer one bedroom apartments, efficiencies and handicap apartments.

Located in downtown Raleigh, Sir Walter Apartments gives the active senior access to restaurants and shopping areas within walking distance; all with an affordable rent based on the applicant’s income. Some restrictions apply.
